Proceeding contribution from Nick Thomas-Symonds (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 24 January 2017. It occurred during Debate on bill on Wales Bill.


Wales Bill

While the Secretary of State is talking about the fiscal framework, may I welcome the lifting of the cap on borrowing for capital expenditure to £1 billion? That is not quite the £2 billion that Front-Bench colleagues in the other place asked for, but I welcome it as a step forward. Does the Secretary of State agree that that measure will give the opportunity to continue investment in infrastructure in Wales, both digital and physical, and can also contribute to increased productivity?
